Horn Upgrade
After doing a search I am still wondering if there is a Hella model or other mfg. horn upgrade that can plug and play in my 08 E-550? Looking for something that does not require any modifications. It is definitely a wimpy horn and can't see that it would do any good if I needed it. Have e-mail in to Hella but haven't heard back yet. Thanks for any suggestions.

Horns
Below is a link for the PIAA single or double horn sounds. Does anyone know if the E-550 has one or two horns - I can see one near the front of radiator but I think someone said there was a second one and that headlight had to be removed? Could a single or double PIAA horn be connected w/o problems?

I'm also considering adding a PIAA "Sportshorn" to my '05 E320. Any feedback on these horns and their adaptability to the E-series will be greatly appreciated.

I would imagine that this setup is also very cheaper with lots of such cars in junk yards.

You can search 240 part # 2405420020 used however, note 240 two horns mounted together as one part 211 has separate tweeter & woofer horns so may require wiring revision.
